Texipol® 63-400 is a rheology modifier that imparts pseudoplastic properties to aqueous-based compositions.

• Supplied as a pre-neutralised dispersion as the sodium salt of an acrylic polymer

• Provides almost immediate thickening without needing neutralisation or extra additives, helping to speed up production times and lower costs

• With 4% in water, it creates a thickened viscosity of >35,000 mPa s

• Ideal for thickening systems of pH>7, although it can be used from pH 5

• It can be used in a wide variety of aqueous binder systems including PVA, SBR, and acrylic and styrene acrylic copolymers, and various adhesive, sealant and coating formulations

A next generation inverse emulsion synthetic thickener, Texipol® 63-425 is based on a significant proportion of bio-derived content. It imparts pseudoplastic rheology to aqueous compositions.

• Supplied as a pre-neutralised dispersion as the sodium salt of an acrylic based polymer

• Gives almost instantaneous thickening when mixed directly into aqueous formulations

• Already neutralised so there is no need to adjust the pH to activate

• Typical thickener dosages are 0.5-2.0%, though this is system dependent and higher paste viscosities may require higher addition levels

• Increased electrolyte resistance

• Good emulsification properties
